(comedy, crime, drama, romance)
Internet love connections and mail-order brides rarely ever work out, and John (played by Ben Chaplin) should have known. Having never been lucky in the game of love and tired of waiting for the perfect woman to come along, John decides to take his chances and orders a mail-order bride from Russia online. At first, things seem perfect: his new bride Nadia (Nicole Kidman) is a gorgeous woman, and although she may not speak much English, her skills in the bedroom more than make up for any communication problems. When Nadia's 'cousins' unexpectedly arrive to celebrate her birthday, John is drawn into their web of corruption and crime.

This film had played better as a romantic comedy. Instead, it
Neither one thing nor the other. All the performances are good, but
somehow missed the mark. More like a satire of an Alfred Hitchcock thriller
. The plot was too silly for a thriller, the characters are
Cartoons and uptight employee of the bank would have gone to the police
immediately demanded cash. As a comedy, that could have gone very
With an absurd plot and the equally absurd ending, but as a
Thriller, simply fell flat.

Nicole Kidman can successfully play the kind of girl who could be a real leader
Tornero if not dressed as garbage, comb hair, it
Lavados, and stopped lighting a cigarette from another. The scenes of
His casually puffing away on a cigarette dangling from the side of his mouth
are hilarious. She probably replaced track perfume
Deodorant. The two accomplices were also good Russian, and Ben Chaplin
was duly uptight as the "victim". At first I thought it was too
bet an email to get girlfriends, but have made him a geek who
have been too predictable. Many men handsome and successful
That only seemed to strike out with the ladies.

Overall, I rate this well if they have nothing better than
Do.
John (Ben Chaplin) is a hapless bachelor in St Albans, seeking
love in all the wrong places. So goes online and orders, a Russian Brides
by correspondence. She comes in the form of Nicole Kidman. Although
His background is questionable and his English is fragmented, it is
Great in bed, so he has no complaints.

But when their cousin appear on his door a whole new world of
deception and violence opens for Joe, pulling him deeper and deeper
Low .

The premise of the film is quite good, but the overall performance is
Tan-tan. Nicole Kidman gives a very good performance (
worthy of a Best Picture), but Ben Chaplin is just OK. He slaps around him a little,
, it is almost as bold as his character is handled. Anyone can
perform the role, so that the kind of stuck in a rut.

The film is grungy, dark and feels independent - it is hard to imagine
Fees Hollywood Nicole Kidman signature on it, but she really is
Reason this film remains interesting and attractive. Without it, I do not
I think it would have bothered to sit through all of it.
